The woman in this picture, served in these United States Marine Corps where she met her husband, conceived 17 children, gave live birth to 13 of them, home educated all of her children, has battled Rheumatoid Arthritis for almost 3 decades, has been in chronic pain for most of her maternal life, has gone through trials that would make a number of men run, has prayed over her children without ceasing, and is grandmother to 22 grandbabies. I'm proud to say that she's my mother. And may God continue to bless her.
